Aeronaut Bellisima Yacht

Rockbag Openingspost 2 maanden geleden 41

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a winter project and am considering getting the Aeronaut Bellisima Yacht kit to build.
Has any member built or sailed this model?
I would appreciate any information or advice regarding this boat.
Thank you in advance.
Ian

@IAndyB2, agree with Andy, The keel needs to be reinforced both sides as it is not man enough for the job. I altered the sail suite on my Bella as I had several Bermuda rigged boats.

Hi - I made Bella - which I think is same model - just smaller !

It was a very well thought out kit and went together very well. The only challenge was getting the hull top sides to pull into the bow and get them to line up with the bottom panels. Final model sails very well. I did add a layer of plywood to each side of the keel - so it could then be "profiled".

The material supplied for the sails - just lightweight "spinnaker" type - worth using something else.
